Meanwhile, flag-draped coffins not for viewing
So, I must witness in the papers, the 5, 6, 10 and 11 o'clock news, the visage of a mangled dead person (al-Zarqawi).
Yet the image of a coffin draped in an American flag would be way too traumatic for me or the family whose body said coffin contains?

Well, thank God our thoughtful government (not to mention media) is looking out for my delicate sensibilities.
